Bad coffee in Seattle

‘I’m not buying Starbucks and you shouldn’t either.’ Seattle Mayor-elect Katie Wilson joins striking baristas

Just hours after Bruce Harrell conceded the narrow Seattle mayoral race to her, Mayor-elect Katie Wilson joined striking Starbucks employees on the picket line and urged people to boycott the company.

Holy cow! That's too much milk and cream and sugar syrup and way too much work to make a cup of coffee with all that schnazz!

The baristas and their mayor are not that good looking with all the body piercings, tattoos and brightly colored dyed hair. People are making coffee for themselves, filling a Thermos for work and packing a brown bag for lunch. I'm behind the wheel and I don't have the time of day for that sugar syrup flavor liqueur business, and one of those baristas inevitably leaves the refrigerator door open all night and then they're serving lattes with spoiled milk.

Good quality coffee beans, make a pot of fresh brewed hot coffee at home, choose my own breakfast without having to yell at short order cooks, put a few dishes to soak, I'm not missing anything, am I?

It's a certain time of day I'm minding my own business and I have a distinct feeling those other people are not.

I'd order "café au lait" instead of "caffè latte" but they spit on me because I speak bad French and I don't know any Italian.
